We have new updates for Surface 3 devices.
Starting this month, you may also notice a new file naming structure for these updates. With more and more customers choosing Surface for their organizations, we’re making this change to provide a consistent customer experience across multiple release mechanisms (like Windows Update and DLC). You’ll start to notice this name change this month on some devices, with others to follow in the coming weeks.

Updates for Surface 3 devices For all Surface 3 devices, updates will be posted at http://aka.ms/drivers/surface3. Please note that the Surface3 MSI will require a reboot. The reboot is required to complete installation of drivers and firmware. We recommend IT administrators to enforce reboot as quickly as possible after deploying the MSI; not rebooting the device will leave it in an unstable state.
IT administrators could force a restart using the shutdown /r command, make that quiet, show the user a custom message, and control the time until it restarts, for example, or they could use another restart method that they prefer.

As always, these updates may also be made available via the Windows Update service. When Surface updates are provided via the Windows Update service, they are delivered in stages to Surface customers. As a result, not every Surface will receive the update at the same time, but the update will be delivered to all devices.
Thanks,
